Texas Minerals, Colorado Residence

The Denver-Texas connection runs deep in the oil and gas industry. Many Denver-based operators have significant Permian Basin assets, and countless industry professionals have moved between the two states throughout their careers. If you're a Colorado resident who owns Texas mineral rights, you likely understand their value—but that doesn't mean you want to manage them from 600+ miles away.

Whether you inherited Texas minerals from family, acquired them during your career, or invested in the Permian boom, managing Texas assets from Colorado has unique challenges:

Different regulatory environment than Colorado

Texas Railroad Commission rules vs. COGCC

Multiple operators across different Texas basins

Texas franchise tax filings for mineral income

Major Texas Producing Areas

We buy minerals throughout Texas. Many Denver-based operators are active in these areas, so you may recognize the basins:

Permian Basin

America's most prolific oil basin spanning West Texas. Includes Midland Basin, Delaware Basin. Counties: Midland, Martin, Howard, Reeves, Loving, Ward, Ector, Andrews.

Eagle Ford Shale

South Texas oil and gas play. Counties: Karnes, DeWitt, Gonzales, La Salle, Dimmit, Webb, McMullen, Live Oak, Atascosa.

Haynesville Shale

East Texas natural gas play extending into Louisiana. Counties: Harrison, Panola, Shelby, Rusk, Nacogdoches.

Barnett Shale

North Texas gas play around Fort Worth. Counties: Tarrant, Johnson, Wise, Denton, Parker, Hood.

The Denver-Permian Connection

Denver is home to numerous Permian Basin operators, from large independents to private equity-backed E&Ps. This creates a unique situation where Colorado residents may own Texas minerals through:

Career connections: Worked for a Denver company with Texas assets

Investment opportunities: Purchased minerals through industry contacts

Family history: Relatives worked in Texas oil fields

Inheritance: Family owned land in West Texas, passed down minerals

Texas-Specific Questions

Texas has no personal income tax, so you won't pay Texas income tax on royalties. However, Colorado does tax all income including out-of-state mineral income. When you sell, Texas won't tax the gain (no income tax), but Colorado will tax it as capital gains. You may also have Texas franchise tax obligations depending on your royalty volume. Consult a tax professional familiar with both states.
Many Denver-based operators run significant Permian operations. You can sell leased minerals—the buyer acquires your ownership subject to the existing lease. You receive the sale price at closing, and the buyer receives all future royalties. The operator relationship doesn't change; only the royalty recipient does.
Different basins have different economics. Permian Basin wells typically have different decline curves, gas-oil ratios, and operating costs than DJ Basin wells. Our valuations are based on Texas-specific data for your particular area, not general industry assumptions. We use the same data sources and methods you'd expect from any professional mineral buyer.
Not at all. Many families own minerals across multiple counties, especially in the Permian Basin where ranches often spanned county lines. We can buy all your Texas minerals in a single transaction, even if they're in different counties with different operators. One closing, one payment.
